Watch Me Win, Alpha

Chapter 42

Jimson had the gall to furrow his brows in concern. “I hope she’s all right… that poor girl.”

I watched him carefully and decided to test him.

“She is,” I said flatly. “She was found an hour ago.”

damned smug confidence.

Jimson remained eerily calm.

confusion.


I didn’t raise my voice. “Do you even know what she was doing

here? What she found?”

Jess scoffed. “She’s a secretary. She’s been here forthree days.

Why would anything she says matter?”

I walked forward slowly, each word clipped and deliberate. “That secretary uncovered something you’ve failed to detect in two years. She was doingmyjob. She disappeared onmywatch.”
